Ambassador to The Holy See, James Nicholson, provides us some well-informed opinion as to the selection the new Pope.

Jim Nicholson, former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See, told LIGNET the next Pope will play an important role in global affairs. One area where the role of the Pope is critical, according to Nicholson, is in fighting radical Islam. He noted that the Pope is a “spiritual superpower” and has “a very big moral megaphone.” Nicholson said he believes there are three leading contenders for the new Pope,citing one each from one each from Europe,South America and North America.

We shall soon see. We ask that God guide the hands, hearts, souls and minds of those now deliberating in the conclave at Roma.
